StepChange is a leadership development practice that drives accelerated positive change to teams through self-awareness, goal setting and action-based learning

Most common challenges we’re seeing in today’s organisations :

Complexity

Complex world of work requires constant change and adaptation (situational learning)

Culture

Leadership models and competency frameworks need to be embodied at all levels

Learning

Learning increasingly takes place in real time at work

Diversity

Company performance requires effective collaboration of diverse talents

Scaling:

Onboarding of new managers or directors need development of shared durable skills

Remote work:

High performance requires new ways of working for dispersed teams


Companies that trust us

How does it feel to work with us?

Different individuals, one Team. We are each individually very different, but our magic comes with the combination of our skills and backgrounds.

Flexibility. We have a strong belief in our methodology but have the humility to constantly adjust our approach to every clients’ individual circumstances / challenges / context

High energy. Every team intervention is designed to engage and maintain a high level of energy - we always build highly participative sessions that people enjoy and will remember

Loving boot. We are both supportive and challenging - we are behind you to enable your team to flourish, and we also frankly share our observations to accelerate your speed of change.



Our coaching model

It all starts with self-awareness :

  • We use world-class psychometric tools
  • Team and individual assessments available


Goal setting: Get clarity on what you want to change

  • Visualise the dream
  • Turn into smart goals
  • For teams and individuals


Change through action

  • Experiment in real life
  • Reflect, learn and iterate
  • Confirm and anchor with feedback

Awareness

Goal Setting

We’re a highly experienced team applying a scientific approach to team development

We have built leadership experience in complex international environments.

We’ve helped dozens of companies with our practical coaching approach.

We set in motion new teams and leaders through our proven formula of awareness + goal setting + learning by doing, supported by world-leading psychometric tools.

We combine individual and team coaching sessions as we believe they are highly mutually reinforcing: individual coaching support each team member’s change for the benefit of the whole team dynamic

We believe leadership development is a science. We both graduated in Management, Psychology and Coaching.
